Benedikt Frosch

Benedikt Frosch (died April 1945) was a German Wehrmacht soldier during World War II. Frosch was captured by the US Army at the Battle of Kirchohsen while wearing an American uniform, and Sergeant Don Collier decided to have Frosch shot for violating the Geneva Convention by wearing his enemy's uniform. Frosch showed him and Norman Ellison pictures of his family, but Collier had Frosch get on his knees, and he physically forced Ellison to shoot Frosch in the back with a pistol, killing him. The killing left Ellison traumatized, as he did not want to kill defenseless prisoners.
